Sinopsis
Excerpt from The Historical Record, 1897, Vol. 7: A Quarterly Publication Devoted Principally to the Early History of Wyoming Valley and Contiguous Territory With Notes and Queries, Biographical, Antiquarian, Genealogical
Another class are the seekers after wealth. Some of these have heard that a fortune was awaiting them in Europe, and all that was necessary was 'to properly prove their descent. Every now and then we read in the newspapers that millions of dollars are awaiting claimants, in England, Ireland and Germany, and at once the genealogist is besieged by persons having the same name who are desirous of securing their share of the fortune. It is wonderful to what lengths these people go, and I presume there is no country in the world where people are so easily duped and defrauded as in the United States. The reason therefor is the greed of gain and the desire to become suddenly rich. All these reports of fortunes are arrant frauds, and not a dollar has ever come to claimants in this country.
